I have not fully followed the "Rent Rant Controversy". Does Mr. Rent think SEAC or others have a superior product or does he think none of the current contenders have a ready to go VOD product? A non-argumentative, not too technical reply, please.

USVO, well I read it and tried to look up the company -- a 60 cent
Bulletin Board stock with no SEC financials on EDGAR that I could find. If this is why SEAC is up I would sell fast.

As far as the substance, note this quote: "USA Video Interactive's Wavelet compression technology provides high quality video
on the Internet even with only a basic modem connection."

Could someone please educate me on how would this work if you had a 28K "basic modem connection"? Would you need a zillion gigs of storage and a week to download a movie, since I don't see how you could see anything in real time?
